ARBITRATION

At Lex Horizon, arbitration is one of our core practice areas. With arbitration increasingly becoming the preferred forum for major corporations, banks, NBFCs, and other organizations aiming for swift dispute resolution and recovery, we offer strategic, client-focused solutions tailored to each case. Our dedicated team of experienced arbitration counsels is well-versed in every stage of the process—whether it’s securing interim relief, facilitating prompt appointment of arbitrators, or conducting arbitration proceedings. At every step, we ensure our clients are effectively represented and supported.

What is Arbitration?

Arbitration is a method of dispute resolution where parties agree to refer their disagreements to a neutral arbitrator instead of going to court. The arbitrator’s decision, called an award, is binding and enforceable like a court judgment.

It is commonly used in:

Commercial and corporate contracts
Infrastructure and construction agreements
Joint ventures and partnerships
International trade transactions
Shareholder and investment disputes
Real Estate Disputes
